Hello, Jon in Indianapolis. 2023 Ridgeline (garage queen for now) and a diy overlanding trailer with roof tent. And I already have a question haha! Anyone recognize the suspension on my trailer? I did not build it but was told it is a Ford auto suspension (Escort perhaps?) Just so I can refresh bushings, shocks, springs, hubs etc. as necessary.

Hello, Everyone.

Location: Ontario, Canada
Current Vehicle: 2015 Jeep JK Sahara 2DR
Overlanding Experience: Beginner

I've always been an outdoorsy type, I think overlanding is really neat and definitely something that has perked my interest over the years but never had a vehicle that would be capable for it. I am a complete beginner but look forward to learning more about it so I can get out exploring safely.

Hi Amanda,

Welcome to Overland Bound!

You will find plenty of useful information about Overlanding here in the forums. For beginner we have also a Beginner Q&A.

Check out the Rally Points for meetups and to connect with members in your region.
